The Roadie is a highly evolved penknife that is more practical and user-friendly than its historical predecessors. The Double Dent is a pair of symmetrical dimples in the blade that provide a solid purchase for a fingernail-free two-handed opening ande doesn't collect dirt or debris. It also features a subtle index-finger choil that increases control of the knife during use and acts as a safeguard against unintentional closure. The sheepfoot-style blade is ground from Bhler-Uddeholm N690Co steel, a high-performance stainless steel alloyed with cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium. Its wide blade profile and full-flat grind create incredible edge geometry for a keen, scalpel-sharp edge. At the base of the blade near its juncture with the handle, there is a subtle forefinger choil (finger groove). Placing your index finger on the choil provides excellent control of the edge and creates a natural stop to help prevent the knife from closing unintentionally. Both the choil and the opposing thumb ramp on the spine of the blade feature jimping (textured grooves) to promote a positive, non-slip grip. Unlike a traditional slipjoint, the Roadies blade is held open by an improved notched-joint mechanism. Its spring also forms the handles full-length back strap, giving it structural strength and providing a foundation for the durable fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) scales. The injection-molded scales are contoured for comfort and feature a recessed Spyderco bug logo on both sides.
